Hey guys, so I have this idea and I really wanna run with it so long as you're on board so review and let me know if you wanna keep this thing alive.

Things you need to know. Dan had a brief fling while he and Deb were separated when Nathan was little.

This takes place towards the end of the missing years when Nate's going into the NBA (playing for the bobcats instead of Seattle) and Lucas has had his book published and his falling out with Peyton. Haley is just finishing up her student teaching and Jamie is 4.

This is a Brucas, Naley, and Jeyton fanfic with an OCC.

HERES A BIT OF A SNEAK PEEK

Dear Nathan and Lucas,

Unlike the majority of the populous behind these bars that claim to be innocent, I know for a fact I'm not. Frankly, if I were to make a list of my wrongs, I could be writing it for the rest of my sentence so it's not surprising one of those skeletons slipped out. This particular skeletons name is Logan Atwood and he's your younger brother… another son I selfishly abandoned and never looked back.

But, in here, that's all you really do.

And you're probably wondering why I'm telling you this… why make you hate me more and I want you to know that is far from my intention. But if you hate me then I understand. Just please don't write off what I'm about to ask of you because of it. See like you, Lucas, I thought he'd be alright because he had this strong, independent mother and he was until she died in a house fire. Since then, he's been bouncing from foster home and his only way out is through you.

And, trust me I get the hypocrisy of this coming from me, there's nothing more important than family and this boy needs a family… his family. Don't do this for me, I wouldn't expect you to. Do it for your brother.

Scribbled neatly on a single white sheet of paper are the series of words Lucas Scott has read a series of times; words that he still couldn't quite grasp the meaning of. This was the hundred and sixty-seventh letter he'd received from Dan Scott and despite his usual routine of forwarding it to his trash can, he finally caved to his curiosity and opened this strange piece of mail. The tip of his coarse fingertip follows along the words carefully, following along to make sure he'd read it correctly. Surely, he was mistaken the first time. That's it. His eyes were strained from staring at his computer screen all day working on the rewrites for his novel.

Or maybe not.

Bright blue irises darken to an angry navy as his denial diminishes thanks to the words written right there in black and white. Dan Scott was the Voldemort of the family- the greatest evil since Hitler himself. So why should he believe anything out of his mouth or written by his hand. 'Because', he finally realizes. 'He abandoned him, so why wouldn't he betray another son?'

A kinship is already formed, a pang of comradely between the brothers brought on by the abandonment of the father. Only difference is that Lucas had Keith help raising him and he still has this wonderful amazing mother that always just radiates nurturing and warmth. If Dan'd been sending the same letter for almost a year, who knows what's become of him. It sent Lucas into a tailspin thinking where he'd be without his mom or the guidance Keith provided him.

Running a hand through his immaculate mane of flaxen locks, Lucas tries to wrap his head around the life changing news that'd been dropped in his lap but the better part of him doesn't want to waste time contemplating finding his long lost brother because family is family and you don't turn your back on family.
